Petco Contest Winners -Second Place

This weekend we took Dolly and Franklin to Petco in Annapolis for a photo together (without us this time) and to enter them in their ear of corn suits in that local halloween costume contest. We met Tom's parents at the store, so it was more fun.
There were only about 7 others with their pets (all dogs and two cats). I guess the judges (three employees) liked cats, because that cat won first prize, much to the dismay of all the dog owners... because the cat wore a store bought flower outfit. Dolly and Franklin came in second, which meant a basket of a couple of different treats, small samples of dog food, and a $5 gift card to Petco.
The heavy rain we had on Saturday kept a lot of people from coming out we think... That meant more treats for us to get for the kids, as Petco had a table of free treats. Tom's mom helped herself to them, too, so she'd have plenty on hand when her grand-doggies come and visit!
Our friend Ben called us later and told us he went by the Bowie Petco to see if we'd be there, and said that no one even showed up for their contest. Next year we'll go to Bowie. :)
